I am a hard working individual. My ex tried to get me to sign my rights over. I refused, and now she has me paying nearly $400 in child support while she sets at home with no responsibilities whilst my child is at school. She's trying to convince me that signing my rights over is what's best and using the system to her advantage. I begged for 50/50 shared and legal custody. I was continuously told "it won't happen" by my attorney. I have to bend over backwards to prove that the mother is unfit, while all she has to do is change her marriage status. I genuinely believe that the mother should have to work just as hard as the father of she wants to say he's unfit. -

Mothers should be enforced to report what the money is used for. Just like fathers are enforced to pay by being put in jail if they fail to do so. Also family lawyers need lower their rates.REPORT COMMENTS

I think the system needs to start putting the child support on cards that only work to buy things for the children. A lot of these women use the child support to fix their hair and nails which is why men dont want to pay child support. It rarely goes to the children. I also think the system needs to also think about how much the father makes before making a decision on the amount. Because alot of men cant support themselves because they have to pay more then they can afford. And putting a warrant out on a person trying to find a job to pay child support is ridiculous. It needs to change.REPORT COMMENTS

My problem is I was told if I would pay all the back child support she was going to drop the child support for the main reason it's not my kid he lives with his real dad and mom but I paid ten thousand dollars and I went away after I signed my rights away and was told to never come around so I did I left and 5 years later out of the blue I find out I'm 18,000 behind on child support I called the devil Jennifer Cottrell and she thinks it's funny and says it's not her problem so what am I supposed to do it's way too much behind I can't even get a passport to come back to america to try to fix this so the system is set up so people can use our government to shake us down for the angry parent I'm so lost about this I'm planning to sit down and make a video on YouTube of how a meth addict can use child support to rob peopleREPORT COMMENTS

Especially having kids and telling the father you don't need him. (Basically playing chess) using the child as a pawn to control the ENTIRE situation. To receive extra income or to entrap the man from his future. Or even for personal esteem reasons. It's very VERY sad how the court system justifies it and manipulate the situation to their personal expense as well. Woman that ALSO have multiple baby fathers should not be eligible for child support at all. There should be a FINE LINE. I'm having my first son .... her 3rd kid by 2 different guys making me the 3rd babys father I feel as if I have been robbed of joy. When govt allows these types of woman to KEEP reproducing carelessly not working consistently but ABLE TO HAVE SEX it's very unfair. Even find another guy to be with after deciding to not work it out with the baby fathers. They literally make the next new guy a stastic very poor and unresponsive generation of self sufficiency ...relying on Income tax refunds and the kids suffer all year because people use the kids as cheap meal ticket for personal gain (TERRIBLE GOVT in a TERRIBLE SOCIETY... A WOMAN CAN GET PREGNANT HAVE THE CHOICE TO ABORT OR HAVE CHILD AND THE MAN AUTOMATICALLY GETS 18 YEARS SO ON AND SO ON????????

Why doesnt congress require people who recieve child support to use a card that child support money goes on and keep track of the spending to see whether or not its going towards needs of the child.

I am a father of 3. I have worked my entire life and I've supported my family to fullest. My EXwife has slept most our married life even when the kids are home and I'm at work(I used to come home during my lunch break when she wouldnt answer the phone to find her sleeping this happened all the time) . She has also slept at other men's houses before she decided to divorce me. My kids are in school and she does absolutely nothing during the day she has no job and lives with her parents with my 3 kids. The government has said that this is OK and since I'm the bread winner this is OK with them. I pay probably a small amount of child support compared to most with 3 children mine being $918 a month My children tell me how their mother won't buy them shoes so I buy them shoes and they take them home with them she says she has no money. My children are led to believe she has no money when I give them, her plenty of money. She eats out all the time and goes on vacation with no job Or any real expense being that she lives with her parents. There are easy solutions to this put the money on a card that can be used for food and clothes much like food stamps. There is a lot of stipulation and money spent making sure that the non custodial parent pays their child support but no stipulation or money spent Making sure that the money that the non custodial parent is being spent on the children. This is a major flaw in today's government. The easyability a putting money on a card much like a food stamp card can be so simply done. So why is it not done?REPORT COMMENTS

I live in Chesterfield Virginia and I have physical custody of my seven year old son and he was three months old when he first started staying with me. I've never thought about child support and never said a word to his mom. Now years later I have a baby by a woman that figured if she got pregnant that we would be together. We had sex for almost two years on and off. I constantly told her not to come to my house and I would never be in a relationship with her. She would pop up drunk and threaten to blow the horn and wake up my son and neighbors. I know I could've called the cops and she would have went to jail for Dui but looking back maybe I should have... Being a single dad with no real family I really couldn't get out much to date and I guess she took advantage of that. So she decide to stop taking her birth control and not tell me so now I'm forced to pay child support and deal with an unstable woman. I feel as though the man is being punished for the woman's decision. I know I shouldn't have slept with her but if she decides she wants to have a baby why isn't she held responsible instead of looking like a victim?REPORT COMMENTS

Something many of you are forgetting is that you chose to have sex and get someone/become pregnant. Most people here in the US start having sex as teenagers and use sex as a source of entertainment. That is a HUGE mistake! Respect sex for what it is. It is how humans, and many other beings, reproduce. Sure, it can be fun. However, there are better ways to connect with others than sex. These child support laws were made because men were leaving women pregnant and destitute. Many men still do today. It takes $300,000 to raise a child for 18 years, and that's for bare minimum in a reasonable economy, such as Indiana. The price tag goes up, depending on schooling, clothing, extra curricular activities, etc. per child. Most of you aren't paying a quarter of that amount, nor are you spending your time and energy raising your children.REPORT COMMENTS

Child support makes non custodial parents pay all their child support in payments because they want to be nosy and see if you obtain a good paying job so that they can jack up the amount of the child support payments!

She planned this divorce with her lawyer months before i knew. there was a silent restraining order against me the whole time? What ever that was. She lied about me of course. poisoned daughter against me. havent seen her in 6 years, but still paying. BOTH of them didnt cost me an extra $1230 a month when we were together. In the last 11 years since divorce, she has worked maybe 3 of those years. That is not child support. No one is going to care enough to change it as it is "for the children" and it isnt bothering thier lives, especially if they are lawyers. 21, really?REPORT COMMENTS

Fatherlessness 1. Fatherlessness is the number one social crisis facing our nation. It is incumbent on all concerned citizens to question all policies and laws to determine if, and/or how they promote fatherlessness, and then work to reverse them. It should be officially recognized that because of the social upheaval of the last few decades, the institution of fatherhood now requires special protections. Divorce and Child Custody 2. The law must mandate equal shared legal and physical custody. Adults who bring life into the world by an act of consensual sex cannot have their parental rights curtailed simply because the other parent wills it. Parental rights of unwed parents must only be restricted in the same circumstances where it is done with intact families: when there exists legitimate concerns for the welfare of the children. As long as there are incentives to eliminate one parent from the lives of his/her children, there will be destructive custody battles. The incentives must be removed. Once they are, families will be strengthened on both sides of the equation, since more parents will choose to work through the difficulties in the relationship when they know that they do not have the power to eliminate the other parent from the post-marriage family. 3. The law must mandate that in a family breakup, actions by one parent to eliminate the other parent, be they allegations of abuse, moving a great distance away from the family residence, etc., will be considered not in the best interest of the child[ren], and will be considered compelling cause to limit the custodial rights of that parent in favor of the cooperative parent. Domestic Violence Domestic violence has become a hopelessly politicized issue. Estimates of the number of women battered in their homes each year range from 188,000* to 6,000,000**; and even higher numbers have been claimed***. Also, it has become impossible to address this issue in an intelligent fashion when definitions of violent and abusive behavior have been broadened to include such things as "logic, claiming the truth, not responding to others' needs, and emotional withholding****." Furthermore, domestic violence studies, policies and programs that recognize abuse in all combinations of relationships yet dismiss female-on-male abuse/violence as being statistically insignificant, are clearly agenda-driven and have little credibility. Unbiased research shows that female-on-male violence not only accounts for a sizable part of all domestic violence, but is also an important factor contributing to serious male-on-female domestic violence. For the latter reason alone it can't be ignored. 4. All efforts to address domestic violence that ignore female aggression must be challenged whenever possible. Any and all laws that are written to protect one class of adults at the expense of the civil rights of another class are reprehensible in nature and antithetical to the principles of liberty and equal protection on which our nation was founded. Whether they are explicitly targeted, such as the federal Violence Against Women Act, or implicitly targeted as with M.G.L. 209A: Zero tolerance for any laws that abridge the constitutional rights of one specific class of people for the sake of a politically correct goal that suits an ephemeral political trend. Child Support In its present form, child support is a misnomer. There is no real "child support." The present system takes money from non-custodial parents, overwhelmingly men, and gives it to custodial parents, overwhelmingly women, to spend however they see fit. It is an intolerable condition that a father must be forced to subsidize a family that has been forcibly taken away from him. 5. Following a family breakup, assuming both parents wish to stay involved with their children, no money should be forcibly transferred from one household to another, except in exceptional circumstances, and then only to insure that the children's needs are taken care of. If one parent chooses to be an absent parent, he/she should provide financial support for the children that they brought into the world. Zero tolerance for intentional abandonment and parental irresponsibility. Sexual Abuse of Children 6. Sexual abuse of children is deviant and pathological behavior, and society must protect children from such sexual predators. Intentionally making false allegations of sexual abuse is itself a form of sexual abuse, and this behavior must be criminalized. The children that are affected must be protected from the perpetrators, be they a vindictive parent, child abuse medical "expert," zealous social worker or attorney, or a witchhunt-driven, child-related institution.REPORT COMMENTS

The child is 14 yrs old, there is one other child that has turned 18 3 yrs ago and child support has been paid at the rate for 2 children when the oldest was almost 20. So in this case it isn't about if you can or can't afford children, it's about being treated fairly in court that's all. Neither of the children have ever went without anything.

Both parents should have equal right. 50/50 custody. And if one wants majority custody they shouldn't be allowed to go for child support. If you can't afford a child you should let the parent that can afford the child raise the child. It's called parenting.REPORT COMMENTS

I am a disabled veteran and I receive a pension with several issues that lead to me being unemployable. During a custody dispute obviously she came out on top I had a judge impute $1,300 on top of my pension which increase my child support to almost $500 retro it back for one year putting me $4,800 behind and then charging $100 to get the $4,800 paid down. When this case started I was current on my child support and now I'm at a point to where I'm going to have to file bankruptcy. I had no representation because of my financial situation. And I'm allowed 37 days per year to see my son. I'm not a bad father I've never done anything to my children except love them I've never said anything about their mother in any negative way. All it boils down to is an judge with an ego problem and difficulty treating someone fairly in a court of law. During this hearing when I was asking her questions he would look at her and say you don't have to answer that. I pretty much have no rights to my child now other than paying child support I have no decisions in anything what is life nor can I discuss anything with his mother.REPORT COMMENTS

It's not just women. I had my kids for a few months after my divorce before my ex and I decided I would bring them to him. Since I had been a stay at home mom for so long, I was having a hard time finding work, not to mention the child care expenses would have taken all of my paychecks. I thought it would be in the best interest of my kids at the time for them to stay with their Dad. We agreed it would only be until I was on my feet. Boy was I manipulated. I regret it now, I would have kept them and mooched off the government like everyone else seems to do if I had known what the outcome was going to be. Turns out he only wanted them for the $ that comes with them and he had no intentions on ever giving them back. He's basically alienated me from them, talks bad about me to them, I know nothing going on in their lives and my child support was raised based on the fact that "he could only work part time" Now that it was finalized, he has a full time job and makes more than I do. They're in another state and my visitation deviation was lowered because I wasn't visiting them enough. Well I wasn't because it cost more than $100 to travel 8 hours away and stay in a hotel room. Now it's lowered to $75 and I was told it would be taken away if I didn't visit my twice a month....needless to say I still can't afford to do so. My poor husband works over time and is barely home just so we can afford to pay my ex child support that he doesn't use on the children. He also gets my son's social security check by the way and it is not counted as income ( I am not allowed to touch this either while my son is with me). He takes vacations and texts my daughter pictures of his fun time and steak dinners while they're with me during the summer and I'm still paying his sorry butt child support. I get their haircuts for them because their dad won't pay for a haircut. My son's medical needs get neglected and I can't take him while they're with me because I have to ask permission from him in which he says no because he doesn't want to pay half the bill. The courts use the excuse of he still has to provide a home for them for the 2 months they're with me during the summer. Well hello! I still have to provide a home for them while they're with him too but that isn't taken into consideration. The whole system is screwed up. I work to pay my bills, he should have to work to pay his. The child support system needs to come up with a way to monitor what the money is spent on. Not electric, not rent, not a mortgage, not water bills, not cable bills, not auto insurance, not car payments, not the custodial parent's phone bills, not new clothes and shoes for the custodial parent, not haircuts for the custodial parent, not vacations and entertainment for the custodial parent, and it shouldn't be used at all during extended visitations with the non-custodial parent! Put it on some kind of card that can only be used on certain things and take it away if it's not used for that. Do something! The laws are a joke!REPORT COMMENTS

Listen, Everyone that reads this. Listen. Child support is NOT signed into positive law. Thats correct, its not positive law. No lawyer will tell you that. It deprives man a right granted to him under 42 USC 1983. Title IV/D, cannot constitutionally touch your money. Period. Now, its time in mass to flood the courts, start fighting for your rights. When your case is stopped, meet up at the regional rallies these people put on with the wages of men they steal from, and arrest these people. Use your case against them as evidence of the fraud that is committed by them. Serious. Strike fear into hearts of the Child Support Workers. The game is up.REPORT COMMENTS

Child support laws are completely broken. Forcing the father to live in a poverty state due to the antiquated viewpoint of the state and judges. Nobody should have to suffer like this, I almost feel like ending it each day because of the financial stress child support has put me in.REPORT COMMENTS

The woman should work just like the father. There is no reason unless unable to that the woman can't work. The woman gets child support and every type of assistance available while the father struggles. In many cases the father has to pay thousands of dollars and court appearances to get it court order to see his kids. The woman 9 times out of 10 doesn't even have to comply. A man gets behind on child support he gets put in jail. Its absolutley ridiculous. Also why is child support not monitored? It is for the Child not the woman. This needs to all change and be fair for both parents. If a father is there why put him through nonsense?? It will all change one day. Kids need their Dad regardless of what the woman wants.REPORT COMMENTS
